I am French, et alors! {Crochet}

Thursday, 10 January 2013

I am making the most of the fact that Baby MiH does not have a choice regarding what he wears - here is his latest hat, the froggie hat - the transition before getting his French passport! To be honest I am not sure he really likes it, he knows deep down that this is going to be embarrassing one day... But right now, I think he is the cutest ever.

This is another pattern from Posh Patterns (the designer behind the little owl hat) - it is now much easier to work out his size (3-6 months). In comparison to the owl hat, this one does not cover the ears as much, and therefore does not end up on his eyes - probably a positive then. However the eyes stick out a bit, and therefore it is a bit harder to make him fit in the baby seat (although it is quite cute how the eyes stick out)! This is a very quick project - finished it within an evening (ie a 3-hour sleep slot).

SO SO cute!! I don't know why but this reminded me of a story of when my first was about the same age as yours. We just dressed him in onesies and sleepers most of the time, partly because he was so small and that's all we had that fit him, and partly because we weren't going out very much, so why bother? So my MIL was over one day and she says, "don't you have any.....clothes for him?" I can't remember my response but I have a feeling I was probably pretty cheeky. hehe

Oh classic! Don't worry, you will have ample opportunity to put him in stuff that he will hate later on and thus giving you loads of 'ammo' for later on...clean your room or I'll post it on facebook...brush your teeth or i'll put it on flickr. You get me?

he's adorable and i love the knitted goodies, including the blanket in the last photos. before i had kiddos i used to knit for all my friend's babies. then i had kids and just hope to make them a pair of pj pants or two. maybe when they are teens i can start knitting for them (and boy will they love it then!). happy friday to you!
